Yeah, that was a really weird post. Labelling Musk "abusive" and characterizing him as a "predator," and then a veiled threat about possible hacking from all of the people who have root on the boxes.
For something to be a threat I would have to be at Twitter, which I'm not. It's not a threat: I think it's a risk. You announce you're going to fire 75% of a company on day one, you haven't taken steps to secure the infrastructure before spreading chaos, that's a huge gamble. I'm sure the folks at Twitter are all ethical enough that nothing bad will happen, but doing this this way is sure playing with fire.
Telling people to "ship a feature in a week or you're fired" is abusive as hell. And this isn't some clever three-dimensional gambit to get people to quit: Musk has done this elsewhere as well. https://www.businessinsider.com/elon-musk-reportedly-terrifi...
